So you’ve got that travel itch, and you want to get out and see places, do things, and experience all sorts of new people and places. What place encompasses that more than the United States of America? It’s huge, with 50 states to pick from and anything from snowy mountains to desert canyons, but the only issue is sometimes it’s a hassle getting to take a holiday to the US with all the paperwork.

Local History and Spanish Cuisine Comes Alive at Hilton Boston Woburn

August 30, 2018 by Steve Mirsky1 Comment

Just 10 miles north of downtown Boston accessible by commuter rail, Hilton Boston Woburn overlooks marshland in a rather unassuming part of town just off exit 36 on I-95 surrounded by industrial/commercial space and apartment buildings.

Teaching in the pre-lunch period or at the end of the day can often seem like something of a graveyard shift, and … [Read more...]

August 22, 2018 by Abdul Rastagar2 Comments

We've all heard of the world-famous drives, like the section of the Pacific Coast Highway through Big Sur or Mulholland Drive through the Hollywood Hills. While I have plenty of favorites, I'd like to share three lesser-known routes. There are, of course, many more … [Read more...]

August 21, 2018 by Dave18 Comments

I left for the Tbilisi International Airport in the country of Georgia at 10pm. I arrived at my final destination, Shiraz, Iran some 20 hours later - the next day. If you look on the map this is about a 3 to 3.5 hour flight. As it were, the airport in Tbilisi is under construction; a new runway is being built so all day flights have been moved to the night. I spent all night in the beautiful fairly new Heydar Aliyev International Airport in Baku, … [Read more...]
